Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
In a directed graph defined by the following edges with their weights: (1, 2) = 10, (1, 3) = 5, (2, 3) = 2, (3, 1) = 6, apply the Floyd-Warshall algorithm step-by-step to find the distance matrix for all pairs of vertices.
💡 Hint: Start with the initial weights and iteratively consider each vertex as an intermediate step.
Analyze the impact of introducing a negative cycle in a graph, such as adding an edge with a weight of -5 between two already connected vertices, in relation to calculating the shortest paths.
💡 Hint: Reflect on paths you've calculated before and consider how negative totals would affect them.
